Is there a hook in `@mysten/dapp-kit` that can get the balance on the currently connected wallet?

You could use the suiClient instance that is returned by the `useSuiClient` hook, and call the `suiClient.getBalance` method providing the current address as argument

Worked with this syntax:  
`Number((await suiClient.getBalance({owner: account?.address+""})).totalBalance)/Number(MIST_PER_SUI)`
